چکیده

The rotation of cytochrome P-450 LM2 (CYPIIB4) incorporated into large microsomal-like lipid vesicles was investigated by saturation transfer EPR using 15N- and 2H-substituted spin labels. In combination with rotational diffusion, the distribution and size of protein particles in the bilayer were studied by freeze-fracture electron microscopy. The data from both methods suggest an oligomeric and membrane-spanning aggregate for the topology of microsomal cytochrome P-450.

Studies by Trypsin Digestion in Vesicle Membranes

Purified adrenocortical microsomal P-450~21 was incorporated into vesicle membranes composed of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine a t a molar ratio of 5 3 : 1. Trypsinolysis of the incorporated P 4 5 0 ~ ~ ~ resulted in the formation of 30-, 2 5 , and 20-kDa fragments. Similar fragment formation was observed by trypsinolysis of bovine adrenocortical microsome...

Rotational motion of yeast cytochrome oxidase in phosphatidylcholine complexes studied by saturation-transfer electron spin resonance.

Cytochrome oxidase from yeast has been covalently labeled with a nitroxide derivative of maleimide and reconstituted in lipid-substituted complexes with dimyristoyl-, dioleoyl-, or dielaidoyl-phosphatidylcholine. The rotational mobility of the enzyme in the complexes has been studied as a function of temperature and time, and of lipid/protein ratio, using saturation-transfer electron spin reson...

Electron paramagnetic resonance study of the high- and low-spin forms of cytochrome P-450 in liver and in liver microsomes from a methylcholanthrene-treated rabbit.

The high- and low-spin forms of cytochrome P-450 were observed by electron paramagnetic resonance (epr) in a liver slice and in hepatic microsomes from a rabbit injected with methylcholanthrene. Quantitation of the epr absorption of these two chemical species and comparison with a preparation from a control rabbit showed that the single injection of drug increased the concentration of cytochrom...

Electron Transport Components of Hepatic Microsomes

Components of the hepatic microsomal P-450 hemoprotein electron transfer system (TPNH-cytochrome c reductase and P-450 hemoprotein) and the microsomal cytochrome b5 electron transfer system (DPNH-cytochrome bs reductase and cytochrome bS) were solubilized using Triton N-101 and glycerol, and separated using DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Microsomal aniline hydroxylase activity was reconstituted...

Incorporation of cytochrome oxidase into cardiolipin bilayers and induction of nonlamellar phases.

Cytochrome oxidase from beef heart has been lipid-substituted with beef heart cardiolipin. The lipid phase behavior and protein aggregation state of the reconstituted complexes have been studied with 31P NMR, freeze-fracture electron microscopy, and saturation-transfer ESR of the spin-labeled protein. In the absence of salt, the lipid has a lamellar arrangement, and the protein is integrated an...
